Lancôme Rôses Berberanza is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Julien Rasquinet. Rôses Berberanza opens with Tangerine, settles into a heart of Green Notes, Rose, Ginger, and Pistachio, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Cedar, Violet, and Saffron. Lancôme's Rôses Berberanza carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Prepare for a wild ride: this jammy, boozy rose gourmand is bold, polarising, and utterly unforgettable. If you can stomach the bizarre opening, you're in for a sweet, nutty, and luxurious treat.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Far too potent and sweet for the office, this scent shines on a date or for formal occasions where its strong presence and syrupy gourmand character can make an impact. It's a bit much for casual wear, but for those who love bold fragrances, it could work.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Rôses Berberanza opens with a curious, almost challenging burst of tangerine and green notes, quickly yielding to a lush, syrupy rose heart. Raspberry and ginger add a zesty brightness, while pistachio and hazelnut provide a rich, creamy depth. The dry down is a decadent affair of honey, rum, and vanilla, warmed by cedar and a touch of saffron, creating a dense, woody, and intensely gourmand finish.
